Default car pulled hard to the right and then drove staight??

Ok well last night I was leaving work and my cousin had never ridden in my car. He wanted to know what the hell vtec was so I got onto the road and got on it.....

Ok well I went thru first and then second but once I got to 3rd the car pulled right really hard as if something got stuck..... i braked quicly to pull over and see what was wrong but when I pulled into the parking lot to see hat was wrong I couldn't notice anything. I thought maybe my axle popped but no it was ok on both sides. Well I drove the car thru the parking lot and it seemed fine so I got back onto the street. Well when I felt comfortable again and noone was around I got back on the car the same way and it drove perfectly normal.. I kept doing it and nothing, the car drove like normal and everything....

Ok well I'm going to be checking things out tomorrow and I was wondering what I should look for. I am currently driving the car and it feels perfectly normal. On my way to work got on the freeway and hit a 100 quick and nothing....

My set-up
2000 si
Gsr swap with b16 transmission
Header
Intake w/velocity stack
Ctr cams.....

Just want to say thanks in advance guys....all input is appreciated

Do you have wider tires than stock? Sometimes the tires track on street cracks and unevenness in the road which will cause it to pull the steering wheel one way or another.

True, that's why it is important to always have at least 1 hand on the steering wheel.

i also have a brake caliper that is acting up, sometimes it sticks real bad. so that could be a possibilty as well, but im saying tires /road conditions
